We finally dig the forgotten Vw Beetle from the frozen earth! The filthy Barn Find sees light for the first time in decades!

My gosh that house is absolutely majestic. Must be early 1900's. Some rich guy's home. Generations of people come and go through the decades. Guys like you help the air-cooled VWs go on forever.
1876 ....thank you Shannon 😁
“Racing is life. Everything else is just waiting.” Steve McQueen’s character in the movie LeMans. Another monumental rescue! The VW gods are smiling.
Thank you for providing the org quote :) .
"And you may find yourself a blue Beetle to bring home. And you may find yourself in the bowels of an ancient barn. And you may find yourself chiseling into the frozen earth. And you may ask yourself, 'Well, how did I get here?!?!'" Jason, et al. thanks for the videos on this. I can't imagine the number of combined hours spent on unearthing that prize. Hopefully the other two Bugs at least provided some usable parts, too. Have a great weekend!
talking heads
My God. What have I done!
Once in a lifetime, bug comes out from underground
Water flowing underground
Oh Lord, what have I started! 😄😅🤣🤣
Glad to see that you got the car out of there. I had no doubt! I serviced many of them when they were new. My 73 bettle,one of my best cars I've owned. Thanks for the posting!
Those pullers are worth their weight in gold. Another VW saved from a slow death. Yes.
👍, much easier to roll and load vs drag :) ....plus I didn’t want to twist the vert up
What a once-great property!! What a beautifully built home!! Fantastic bugs as well
I'd like to learn more about that abandoned mansion. Amazing looking!
It's amazing the difference once you've hosed it down - can't wait to see it bufffed up! 👍👍👍
full wash soon , the passenger side paint looks worse perhaps from that rock foundation / condensation ?
I'm always awe struck at seeing a house like that in that state. It was once a families dream and what a dream it must have been! Wow!
That was tough getting that old bug out. Congratulations you did it. Broken marker light and all ! 👍 thank you for sharing
It's finally out! Great video. Thanks for sharing 👍
What a car rescue/ salvage! That must have cost you a lot of strength and nerves. But , the beetle is on the trailer, Bravo. Have a relaxing weekend too!
I'm so happy 😁 you were able to get the vert out. Excellent job all around
Bravo Guys!! That is what I call determination. Loved the three part series, or is there a part four, we still have to see this beetle totally cleaned up. 🚙 Thank you for saving another old bug (sorry Jen, he’s dragging home another one).
Great work fallas. I’ve watched each video. Incredible the problems you had to overcome. Frozen ground needing chiseling, wearing gloves and all that bulky clothing. Thank goodness we don’t have those issues here in Australia. Great V Dub. Looking forward to seeing the restoration and finished product.
Josh Dad did O.K. until the Battery dropped replay Slow Mo!!!😅🤣😂👍👍👍👍👍
🤣, I think it was already on the ground under the car in the barn . I saw it in the edit when we had the jack under the car. did Matt toss it back in or maybe there was a spare in the car ? No idea , too funny though when he claimed the trailer and it took thee light off lol.
Love that Bug!! An original convertible especial out of the Barn!! Keep saving them!! Parabéns
Oh man, cobalt blue w white interior! My 1st 'vert was a '69 that had been abandoned in a field that color combo- after the wrangling to get it titled properly I did it back up in factory threads, down to the grey vinyl top. Lots of work but labor of love at 23 years old... and now at 52 I just brought home a project '78 and couldn't be happier ☀️🤠 Thanks for the fun channel and hard work getting these cars out of the woodwork (quite literally this time!!!)
great story ! thank you for sharing and good luck with the 78 , enjoy it . Thank you
Man you guys really are dedicated to do all the work you did to rescue that 70!
We thank you Stu👍
You ever notice all these people telling you that your doing it the wrong way but they don't have a suggestion how to do it the right way and they never offer to come , thats because they are all BOSSES?
Awesome job getting her out. Cleaned up pretty nicely at the car wash, well the back half at least. Can’t wait to see and hear her run!! Peace and love bro.
Jason the archeologist for VW's. Can't imagine trying to dig one out of frozen ground!
:), have a great weekend Dave
Really enjoy these longer video's Jason, We get to see the real hardwork that goes in to these rescues.. Well done, Great save and lets hope she's a runner :)
thank you BMX'r , you would still be watching if I left the uncut axle pin removal in lol . As for the engine , it's a disaster and will take a few hours of just cleaning . We will fill it up with marvel and let it sit . I would like to save it as it appears to the org engine .
Best barn find/recovery video yet from you Jason! Thank God it wasn't closer to that wall! Great job great video, looking forward to the clean up and inspection! Digging that fancy ski cap too!
Bug Sickle Pop's freshly chiseled Microwavable for that foamy Buttery taste!!!: o
That was impressive. That old dirt floor did not want to give that car up. I loved watching this one. I appreciate all the hard work.👏👏👏
That abandoned mansion is creepy by itself. I hope it can be saved and restored as well.
I would probably have bailed on this this one I give you credit J for seeing it to the end 👍
Thank you , it was much easier with help :)
I just paused the video and before I play it *inhales "LET'S GOOOOOOO!!!"
Only in America get a new meaning, where else in the world would you find such barn finds and the dedicated citizens who work so hard to get them out to restore. I can't imagine what it was like in the gold rush days.
Wow what you folks go through to rescue these automobiles! Glad you finally got it out! 👍
Nice!! I'm looking forward to seeing this cleaned up! What an awesome find. If were the owner, I would have let you have all of those beetles in exchange for cleaning up that entryway into the barn.
I am shocked at how good it looked at the end. You guys definitely battled the elements to get that one! Nice job.
This car is a life's dream so thank you for bringing this blue beauty back to life
I've been along to many VW rescues, but have never had to excavate dirt like that before! Hope that car can be saved with the usual channels and such!
That's a perfect example of "before people had tools they used their mind" 😅
I can't wait for this car to launch.
Well it's been quite a journey with three installments just to get it out of there! Oh don't get me wrong I have enjoyed every minute and the helpful people that trusted you to succeed. On the other hand those people at the car wash really look forward to you coming and blocking their drains.😂 On first look though the bug seems pretty good, I know the others are not so good but the best out first. That bumper will straighten up no problem.😉 Thanks Jason, Matt and Udizzy for some great work and videos. Enjoy your weekend Jason.👍
All your dedication paid off!!
thank you Karen !
Love it saving old VW if it could talk what stories would it tell but now it will live again 😁😁😁👍👍👍👍
Ya Buddy, could have not gone to a better guy, see you next round. still two left. lol Be safe Dizzy.
A valiant efffort for a worthy cause, for sure. Onward
We thank you Skip
It's just waiting their to be saved and their you came you saved him it must be so excited to have it's life back and i know you could give it to back to that cutie,,i wish i can have 1 too
Talk about perseverance! Good job getting that old girl out of the barn!
Great find 👍
thank you Robert

Loved seeing the dirt being washed off. That's a nice blue!

More than "dig", that's excavation! Cheers for your hard work guys!!
haha, sure was , we thank you , much appreciated
I can hardly wait for that convertible beetle once it is cleaned and those rusted bits gone, it should look spectacular, those rims you put on to move the car look awesome on that car,something different, Did Josh give his approval on the Beetle after all he is your right hand, when looking for treasures👆☝🏽👍😎👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Awesome! Just plain awesome 😎
Thank you Kevin.
The Oak Island treasure hunt is nothing compared to this. I can only imagine what that house and car must gave looked like 50 years ago....
I have found my people. Loving these rescue videos and referencing Oak Island!
J pada.m MMP MLMm pp MMP m kn
Wow now that’s what never give up means -property owner must be so happy you cleared his pathway -very impressed guys well done , pat on the back
Well done, guys! She's a beaut! Thanks for another great video!
Love that house.
👍👍
T hank God you got those beetles out of there...I was 16. And that was my 1st car...loved it..
I pulled a 68 Caprice out of a similar barn in the wintertime. It was embedded in ice. We dragged it out with a wrecker, leaving a lot of the rusty frame in the dirt! nice to see you got it out carefully.
Well, Another one DID NOT bite the dust! Thanks to you two guys!
puts a whole new meaning to pounding dirt,
Aye mustie what’s up dude
He got a good girl She had a lovely back end

Last video was a little bit of logging and this video is a little bit of mining 😂
I'm wondering if he's going back for the other one M1 it maybe time for a intervention
Its like a comedy show watching u two get that car out of there well done both of u made me smile anyway 👍
haha, always is :) . Thank you, glad you enjoyed it Paul
What a great find! Love the color with the white! Sport wheels look great on it!
thank you Jason , the rims are growing on me
That drum puller is worth its weight in GOLD !!
heck yeah it is :)
Wow! This is a dream come true! I'd take that property, too! I am thoroughly jealous!
New England Jason and the Search for Farfegnuggen!!
So glad this was you rather than me doing this. Congrats.
I can't stop lafing about that battery falling off😂 have a nice weekend.

@@5150mxVW Your very welcome. Keep'em coming
Determination and Brute Force!!!! Loved it!!!

My favorite car ever! ♥️

nice rinse off! Looks like the hood might be OK after some deep cleaning. I already like that car. It has potential.
ITS FREE!!! YAAAAAY!!! Can't wait to see what's next with this sweet vert.
Good job ! What a phantastic vert !
Hello from New Hampshire! Man, not only a super cool bug…but I’m digging the super cool house. What a find!
Hi up there , I love NH , thank you
You are a tough bunch of men congratulations on your barn find you deserve it you worked hard
We thank you Dan
You got it ahead of this weather phewf!! Great stuff dude
Great work!! Be safe up there in the storm!!
We thank you , I'll deal with the snow / drifts tomorrow :)...it was snowing sideways all day from the wind
My mother had a car beetle when I was a little giri: I adored and still adore that car!
Wow guys a lot of unearthing. Looking good after the wash... U worked for that one another one saved... Have a good weekend..
That was a great effort by all of you to pull that Beetle out!
we thank you, two blue verts at Dust Off 2022😁....
That house and property are spooky! Rent it to hollywood for a horror flick! Great vid guys.
She looks lovely cleaned
Awesome guys you are dedicated for sure. Fascinating video. Always a pleasure.
Great job guys! It was very satisfying seeing it getting washed at the end! I can't wait to see it fixed up.
We thank you , full wash and getting into the engine soon👍
Great job guys, peace.
We thank you Simon
Wow! It's your best "save" series yet. Really great effort from lots of your friends. I'm impressed by the upgrade of the equipment from some of the first rescues. The brake pads removal is genius and others should copy it. Sounds like a new trailer is coming?
Can't believe that top is still in as good of shape as it is. Now we need a tour of the house on here
👍👍
Great job! Congratulations
We thank you Rus
Sometimes it takes a lot of work to win the prize. Good job guys.
we thank you
I’d like to find one of those. That ole house looked pretty cool too.
👍
I can’t believe it…..oh wait, yes I can!!! That was great!
thank you Bita
It's more than the 3 Beetles you need to rescue... The whole property needs your loving attention!
I only had the $ for the Vw's
Hey man maybe a pickaxe or a longer cheisel but good job hanging in there getting it back home 👍.....Love your videos ....BVW Ontario Can.
Maaaaan...Truely a labor of love...Looks great after a shower...glad ya got her out before the freakin blizzard sir...LOL!
There's a VW stuck in Antartica!! I heard.... Ancient one...under 5 miles of Ice!!
That was a project! Snowy and windy in NH......... whooooo
Yeah , here too , I’ll deal with it tomorrow
Great Rescue! 👍
We thank you
That bug looked almost new after it was washed. Amazing!
Coooee Mate ! .... Great as always ! I think you should have move the 'new' car over about three feet, to make access to the right hand side wheels easier ..LOL ! Kind regards Alex
Looks like you have freed the mammoth, now two more to go.
I like how you guys bring a puller. No extended banging and prying. I mean they dont fly off but it looks just so much easier on you this way.
Amazing job!! Really fun to watch and see the hard work on this rescue! 😃👍
We thank you !
Nice bug definitely worth saving 👍🙏
👍👍
